Can you say 'blow it'? I have to wonder if the FCC votes were somehow inverted, because it seems impossible to me that they could screw this up on every single count so completely. FCC loosens broadband rules |

Still hurting from the dot-com bust, shellshocked venture capitalists in 2002 curtailed their fund raising for future investments to a 21-year low, according to a report. No time to be an entrepreneur I guess. VC Funding Slows to a Trickle |

Are we so afraid of repeating the dot-com and telecom bubbles that we've written off entrepreneurs for a generation? That would be a tragedy.

From the Captain Obvious Department: In light of this, it would seem to make sense for managers to keep track of their workers' Web habits. Shouldn't employees conduct personal business on their own time? Think of all the lost productivity! Not so fast. Why you shouldn't act like Big Brother |
